Process for making butyraldehyde from an n-butenyl ester of a carboxylic acid, wherein the n-butenyl ester is hydrolyzed to form the corresponding n-butenyl alcohol n-butenyl alcohol so produced is isomerized to form butyraldehyde.
Disclosed herein is a method for inhibiting the premature polymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers comprising adding to said monomers an effective amount of at least one inhibitor selected from the group consisting of C-nitrosoaniline and quinone imine oxime compounds. Also disclosed is a composition of matter comprising: A) an ethylenically unsaturated monomer and B) an effective inhibiting amount, sufficient to prevent premature polymerization during distillation or purification of said ethylenically unsaturated monomer, of at least one inhibitor selected from the group consisting of C-nitrosoaniline and quinone imine oxime compounds used together with an effective amount of oxygen or air to enhance the inhibiting activity of said inhibitor.
